  2. awareness and prevention as much as early detection
  3. awareness and prevention as more as early detection
  4. awareness and prevention as most as early detection
  5. awareness and prevention as early detection

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

This sentence has an error in using an adjective (many) that is used for countable nouns where an adjective (much) that can be used for uncountable nouns is needed. Option B has an appropriate adjective (awareness and prevention as much as early detection) that is used for uncountable nouns while other options suggest inappropriate adjectives (many/ more/most) and irregular form of inappropriate adjectives; hence, option B is the correct answer.

  3. to increase their customer base, but sadly they do
  4. to increase their customer base, sadly they do

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

This sentence has an error by using an inappropriate conjunction in the place of connecting two contrast ideas. Option A uses (and) a conjunction that is used to connect two similar sentences. Option B uses a conjunction (for) that is used when referring the reason for an incident or any reason. Option D has no conjunction. Option E uses (that) a conjunction that is common but it is inappropriate here. Option C uses a conjunction (but) that is used to connect two contrast ideas; hence option C is the correct answer



Companies often overlook the fact that their success lay in the happiness of their employees.

  1. that their success lay in the happiness of
  2. that their success laid in the happiness of
  3. that their success will lay in the happiness of
  4. that their success lies in the happiness of
  5. that their success lying in the happiness of

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

This sentence has an error in the subject-verb agreement. In this sentence the (success) subject is an abstract noun which needs a singular verb, and since the preceding verb is in the present tense the verb that follows must also be in the same tense as it is in the option D (that their success lies in the happiness). The other options use unsuitable verb forms (lay/ laid/will lay/ lying); hence option D is the correct answer.



Many organizations never attempt to find out their employers enjoy and derive satisfaction from their work.

  1. Many organizations never attempt to find out their
  2. Much organizations never attempt to find out their
  3. More organizations never attempt to find out their
  4. most organizations never attempt to find out their
  5. many of organizations never attempt to find out their

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

This sentence has no error but the options show a series of errors in the use of adjectives. The noun (organizations) is a countable noun so an adjective (many) that is used for countable nouns must be used as it is in the option A (Many organizations), whereas others are all wrong by suggesting inappropriate adjectives (much/more/most). Option D uses a irrelevant preposition before the noun (many of organization) that makes it wrong. Option A is the correct answer.
